Would anyone know a reason to why my dome light wont turn on when its on "door" and open the doors but it lights up when I switch it to "on"? My lights on my door panels don't light up when I open my doors either. .

Your door pins can be bad. They allow the dome light to turn on. On your dash does your indicator lights turn on when you open a door?

You got to respect what you drive, and appreciate what you have, making the best of what you got. and if that means putting CAI, HID's, a phat stereo system, and a idiot in the drivers seat...then so be it!

do the door ajar indicators operate in the dash...like when the cars on or running and you open the door(s)? if not theres little switches in the door jamb, they need cleaned (pretty easy) or replaced.

I think it works on my dash but honestly not sure, I'll have to double check and let u guys know tomorrow.. do those pins or whatever control the lights on the door panels as well?

yeah but its not pins. theres a little L shaped switch in the door jambs of all the doors sorta near the strike plate. it just slides in and out when the door shuts and opens. one screw holds it in, one wire is all that comes off it. theres probably just some grime/oxidation in it, its basically 2 pieces of metal inside some plastic with a little spring. mine were sticky and grungy; took a whole 10 minutes to sort it out.

fun to troll though..ask a simple question and the physics professors come out the wood work and will measure piss streams for 4 pages all while ignoring your question! lmao. I deactivated my Facebook, i felt like it was making me dumb..and the questions..id try to be helpful..but then there comes a point in time when youre like fucking google it..people slapping engines together no torque specs then whining how their shit blew up..but it was mad powerful n' shit..guess Im just getting old..phooey to them.

I do have a DIY guide on cleaning and restoring the door sensors in my signature should it be relevant to you !
